Hi there. Does anyone have any good ideas of stocks that one should buy in the US market? I generally stay away from penny stocks and ETF stocks. They can burn if you are not careful. Currently I am looking for a breakthrough stock waiing to explode in the next 6 months.

Try HB

I think all stocks be them penny or dollar need care otherwise kuchomwa utachomwa tu...why not spend ur penies in kenya u can buy more shares than in the US and spread ur wings like an Eagle thus getting more balance.

If the point is making more money from your scarce resources, BTW, money is always a scarce resource, keep of the American market and put your hard earned money in emerging economies. Watch out for China. In the next few years, their economy is predicted to surpass that of the US! Here in Africa, my best 2 bets would be Uganda and Ghana. Na kama wewe ni mkenya, why dont u start with your motherland, thats if you havent yet taken the plunge! America might soon go the way of the Roman Empire, but not soo soon!

Racasem1... I don't know your level of knowledge but I am hoping you're joking, first, US stock market has been rallying for the past 14 months with Dow gaining close to 100% of its value within that range of time, so your careless comment of america crumbling is baseless. Your next advice on investment is also rediculous by just throwing Sudan in the mix of the countries you would invest in that statement alone suggest that, you either don't know what you're talking about or your joking. I also saw a technical term " quantitative easing" The last person I heard using that term was a form governer from Alaska and it doesn't mean anything, US economy is still the strongest and the most stable economy in the world, China economy need US economy more that the US need china economy, compared to US economy, chinease economy could indeed overtake US economy as early as 50 yrs from now but only in size but not the wealth, by the time 1.8billion chinease reach the level 350million Americans are in wealth, our great grand kids won't be alife.
